About the role
Android Developer – Health & Wellbeing Tech Startup
Hybrid in Southampton (more flexible for the right person)
Up to £100k + Bonus & Benefits
We’re exclusively partnered with an ambitious health and wellbeing startup that’s building a next-generation wellness platform from the ground up. This is not a re-skin or incremental update, it’s a brand-new product with a genuinely differentiated approach, designed to challenge how health tech is built and experienced.
You’ll be joining early, owning the Android experience, and playing a key role in shaping both the product and the engineering culture.
The Opportunity
Take ownership of a native Android application built with Kotlin and Jetpack Compose
Work on a platform where AI and ML are core to the product, not an afterthought
Build on-device, privacy-preserving features with no data harvesting shortcuts
Collaborate with a small, senior team who’ve built and scaled successful products
Influence architecture, tooling, and user experience from day one
What You’ll Be Doing
Designing, developing, and maintaining a high-quality Android app
Integrating with Kotlin Multiplatform modules for shared business logic and data
Implementing on-device ML for personalised user experiences
Building integrations with Google Fit and Health Connect
Working closely with design to deliver polished, accessible Material Design UI
Optimising performance across devices, screen sizes, and Android versions
Supporting Play Store releases and ongoing delivery
What We’re Looking For
Strong commercial experience with Kotlin and Jetpack Compose
Solid understanding of modern Android architecture and components
Experience with Kotlin Multiplatform is highly desirable
Exposure to TensorFlow Lite or on-device ML is a plus
A strong focus on performance, accessibility, and user experience
Comfortable taking ownership in an early-stage, fast-moving environment
Industry experience strongly preferred
Why Join?
Build a product designed to make a real difference to people’s wellbeing
Join at an early stage, currently a small team, growing to 14–15 people within 6 months
Backed by a successful tech incubator with a strong delivery track record
High-trust, low-ego culture where impact matters more than job titles
Package
Salary up to £100k, depending on experience
Strong benefits package (including performance based bonus)
If you’re an Android engineer looking for real ownership, technical influence, and the chance to build something meaningful from the very beginning, this is absolutely worth a conversation.
Compensation
This Android Engineer role pays $100k/yr. Within typical range for android engineer roles in United Kingdom.
